Joining Tinie Tempah to sit atop Brit Pop’s Rap pack this year comes Wretch 32, storming the UK with his latest crossover hit ‘Blackout’ earlier this year.

Now, as to strengthen his core base before the release of his third studio album, the ‘Forgiveness‘ maestro has announced the launch of his own UK tour, kicking off at MAMA & Company‘s Manchester Ritz and ending at AMG’s Shepherds Bush.

The most interesting part about Wretch‘s UK chart wins this year, is that they’ve seen him score the full support of radio and the buying public while steering clear from EDM’s congested lane.

Turning into a gold coin in a box of hit thirsty silvers, his new sound- coupled with his skilled camp- make him one of the most exciting Brit acts to rock the world this year…winning on both a commercial and critical tip.

Of course, though there’s still the small matter of ensuring its supporting album fares just as well, there’s no doubt it’ll  see him soar much higher than the success evading flops that make up the bulk of UK’s Hip Hop scene.
